I have seen some articles on some site's

It had been quoted that the PK army had reverse engineered the tom hawk cruise that crash landed in PK and pakistani's had shared this missile with the chinese and they too made their own copy of the tom hawk missile?

i have forgotten the source.

I wondered what if India places its shaurya hyper-sonic missile in arunachal pradesh where it had previously placed the brahmos cruise missile? :yahoo:
 
It has been speculated that Babur is based on the BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missile, after six Tomahawks crash-landed on Pakistani territory in 1998 during US airstrikes on targets in Afghanistan and its design seems to show this influence. The propulsion system appears to approximate that of BGM-109 Tomahawk according to videos of its launch.
 
How come a missile, can crash land? does only america have this tech.?
 
@Thehood It is suggested that you better read up the relevant information already provided in many threads of this section. Hope you'll find your answer.

Subsonic cruise missiles can crash land, somewhat like fighter aircrafts.
At that time, the Chinese cruise missiles hadn't matured yet. So Tomahawk's design was the only reliable one, to be made the base of Pakistan's cruise missile program.

Tomahawk = 1200 - 1500 KM
Babur = 700 - 800 KM

So how the hell they are copies. Unless the definition of copying changed in the past few years.

range is dependent on the type of propellent and the quality of fabrication.
that takes nothing away from the guidance and navigation technology.

Even if we copied the 100% same propellent, the American missile will have a grater range than ours, reason being the way propellent is stacked in the motor.

You need to read a lot more .. Good luck
 
SubSonic Cruise Missile Are Easy Too Shoot Down Recently Russia conducted a well-publicized test in which a Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft system shot down two cruise missiles launched from a Tu-95 bomber 800 kilometers away. The cruise missiles were heading for a building not far from where the Pantsir-S1 was parked. This test was meant to encourage countries that feel they might be attacked by cruise missiles to buy the Pantsir-S1. The United States has the most cruise missiles and has been the largest user of them for the last three decades. Many countries are developing air defense systems that can detect and destroy cruise missiles. The Tomahawk flies very close to the ground and is hard to spot using radar.Pantsir-S1 entered service four years ago after more than a decade in development. Pantsir-S1 Development began in the 1990s, but was sporadic for nearly a decade because there was no money. Pantsir-S1 is a mobile system, each vehicle carries radar, two 30mm cannon, and twelve Tunguska missiles. The 90 kg (198 pound) Tunguska missile has a twenty kilometer range while the Pantsir-S1 radar has a 30 kilometer range. The missile can hit targets at up to 8,400 meters (26,000 feet) high. The 30mm cannon is effective up to 3,200 meters (10,000 feet). The vehicles used to carry all the Pantsir-S1 can vary, but the most common one used weighs 20 tons and has a crew of three. Each Pantsir-S1 vehicle costs about $15 million.All my Friends From The Otherside Claiming that Babur Is invicible no itz Not
